Hilarious host of The Soup and Community star Joel McHale is no stranger to gay rumors. In fact, his perky disposition and killer abs have made him the subject of discussion among hopeful gays for years. He may not be carrying the gay gene, but he’s one helluva straight ally!

In an interview with The Advocate, Joel says the gay rumors he hears about himself are flattering. “I always find it really weird when guys flip out over someone thinking they might be gay,” he said. “If a guy gets offended by that, there’s something wrong with him. I take it as a compliment.”

What’s more, he revealed his man-crushes on Chaz Bono, Brad Goreski, and (gasp!) RuPaul! Check out the rest of the interview here.
